EasySMX X15 PC Controller - Enhanced Wireless Bluetooth Controller with Hall Joysticks/Hall Triggers/RGB Lighting - No Stick Drift, No Dead Zone - Work for Windows PC, Android, Steam and Switch

I don't game much at all, and even less with a controller. But I picked up a new game recently and needed a controller for it, so I ordered this one. It's decent enough looking, and everything seems to work well enough. I bought it mostly because it was rechargeable, so I wouldn't have to buy batteries. Seems to hold a reasonably long charge. Was slightly smaller than I expected, though my hands are on the large size, and I don't really have a recent point of reference.

Love this controller, love the design and is good quality. Not high end but not low end, about a medium build design so the charge lasts several hours before it needs to be charged.

The plastic is a tad slicker than I would like and I could care less for the internal lighting, but the controls work great. Due to the Hall effect sensors, the joysticks are dead-on and never drift. Built in rechargeable batteries hold their charge well and you can plug a USB-C cable in and use it while charging. I'm dropping a star because of the annoying tendency for these to auto-power-off after a very short period and unlike my other PC gamepads, when this one times out it somehow alerts my PC and I get a stupid pop-up that takes me out of the game to let me know the controller has disconnected. (duh). It's super annoying and unnecessary. My other pads just silently timeout and then wake-up when I hit a button, etc. without interrupting the game. But operationally, this is a great gamepad.

Day 1 and I am very impressed with this unit. It paired up directly via Bluetooth and also works perfectly with the included USB dongle. I was surprised with the quality feel of this unit and I was expecting less for the affordable price. I will come back if it let's me down in the near future but right out of the box this seems like a great value!

Having picked this up on sale, and reading the numerous reviews, I was excited to see what these Hall triggers and thumb sticks were like, and I have to say I'm a little put off. The triggers feel squishy, but they react the way I'd expect them to, and the thumb sticks didn't have cheap, loose feeling that 3rd party controllers have. I have also noted that in some of my games, there's times when the controller goes wonky, and I need to turn it off and back on again to get it working just right. I also noted that even though it picks up as an XBOX controller, there are several times and games where it just doesn't map correctly and setting it up in Steam or in game can sometimes be a pain. I'm going to check for a new firmware update after writing this review. There is a known issue that has random disconnects when using wired, and I have installed this. The face buttons have great tactile feeling to them, seeing that they have been laser carved for the corresponding letters ABXY, and the stipples on the bumpers and triggers feel good like an official XBOX controller does. The D-Pad is responsive without too much give, and that gold looks amazing. The Start/Options buttons are great, and I don't really use Turbo or the screenshot buttons. The extra M1 and M2 triggers take some pressure to trigger, but it wasn't like the Steam Controller where if I breathed wrong they'd fire. I like the extra buttons on the back, and makes some games easier to pull things off like reloading or diving. The low key RGB of the controller works, especially with the mecha like design of the controller and I really enjoy it. I don't need a fully addressable RGB setup, just something to compliment my silly gaming setup. NOTE: If you need to update the controller, you have to us the USB connection, and press and hold L3 when plugging it in and it'll go into update mode. Overall, I'm not disappointed by the controller, I've bought Power A and other brands before that have just let me down for about the same price. I like it, but I think I will need to figure out how to change Dinput vs Xinput if I can while wireless. But, if I can't its not a big deal.

i'm already in love with the controller. the rgb looks awesome and it connects almost right away to the computer. for the switch i had to go to the change grip order page to initially pair it, but it also connected right away. while the controller deos time-out after a few minutes, all of my other wireless controllers do it as well. i know this is to help conserve its battery life. also the switching of the buttons only seems to work when you are actively in a game on the switch.

This is by far the best and most eye catching controller I own (and I own a lot)! The Hall effect controls are silky smooth and super responsive. The RGB lights are awesome and showy, but not too gaudy. I will mention that at times if you are moving the thumb sticks around and you look down at the controller, you may get a flash of direct light that can be distracting. If your not into the RGB lights like I am, you can turn them off in a second with the switch at the bottom. I also has two extra programmable paddles on the bottom that work well for MMORPG games and FPS games to switch like hot keys. I don't actually use this feature much with the games I play, but it's nice to have them if I need them. It does also have a turbo button that you can map at least two button strokes to. I use this in a few hack and slash or button smashing games, works great. The triggers and bumper buttons are also Hall Effect and just as smooth as the thumb sticks. I have had a small problem with the way the bumper buttons are set up in the way they are lined up evenly with the controller and I find myself trying to find them when I really need them. They are not pronounced in any way, but it just might be me learning a new controller. Leave a comment if you have this same problem. The D pad is concaved which I like. It gives you a better feel. The top of the grips are cool to look at, but kind of slick feeling at first, but the entire underside is gripped and you can get a good hold on it. It iOS, Android, Switch, and PC compatible. I am a PC gamer only, but have let my little niece and nephews use it on their Switch and it synched up right away. It can also be used in a Tesla, but since I will never have the money for a Tesla I will have to take the manufactures word for it. It comes with a Bluetooth adapter and a very short 3-ft charging cord. I never use Bluetooth or wireless when I'm gaming, but I did fully charge it when I first got it and ran it wireless to see how long the battery life was, and it was about 16 hrs. It advertises 20 hrs. Now as for the price, It's a steal! It is one of the best controllers I have overall and I have some hi-end controllers. Plus, it just looks so good and Hall Effects won't have the controller drift that others do over time.

Ended up not being functional for my console, but that was no fault of the controller. Buttons felt snappy, joysticks felt smooth, very lightweight. Does not come with a headphone jack, which is why I’m deducting a star.
